You can find documentary after documentary on Hitler and the Nazis but very few are made about Stalin or Mao both of who made Hitler look like a kitten. Today in china Mao is veiwed upon favorably even after he killed between 50 to 70 million of his own people. In college universities today Hitler is the all time bad guy… but not so much Stalin or Mao… my suggestion is that our current liberal philosophy is a direct descendant of the same marxist philosophy of Stalin and Mao and they feel that those roughly 100 million people that died at the hands of these communist deserved it.... Similar to their feelings about conservatives today. Or is it because the communists killed entire lineages leaving no families members to carry on the rage.

It's all about them skulls man.
I think what it stems to is we western countries who pretty much write and control history were of course at war with Germany where as we weren't with Russia or China at the times those rulers were doing what they did. That said we are going to be more focused on the ones we directly opposed and fought since they are our bad guys. It's all in what history we teach and right now (or at least when I was in school) we spent far more time focused on the World War where we were against the great evil known as Nazi Germany.

Cameras & Video.
We have recorded documentation of what Hitler did. We can show pictures of what he did.

Ones of the reasons Hitler is so popular among documentarians is that there is a LOT of actual film footage taken by the Nazis, add to that the fact that they documented everything, even cataloguing those they slaughtered. Finally we have the US and its military who came in to clean up there mess, and further document the atrocities, and it becomes clear why the Nazis are the "chosen" ones to illustrate. Neither Stalin, nor Mao, nor Pol Pot created such extensive documentation.
